THE SMOKE DOPE <\/p>\n

12-13-2016<\/p>\n

Take a puff and take it deep,
\nYour lungs you need to fill,
\nOh man, now ain’t that cool?
\nWow! Gee whiz! What a thrill!<\/p>\n

That’s it, you’re quite a man,
\nSo welcome to our great club,
\nDon’t mind all the cancer talk,
\nThere is never gonna be a rub.<\/p>\n

Oh what lies they spun for you,
\nWhy did you swallow their bait?
\nDoes pride seem important now,
\nAs you meet your painful fate?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
